Ingredients

  • 1 ½ tsp olive oil
  • fresh black pepper
  • 1 tbsp chopped fresh parsley
  • ¼ cup reduced sodium chicken or vegetable broth
  • 2 cups crushed tomatoes
  • 4 basil leaves
  • 6 large eggs
  • 4 tbsp shredded Parmigiano Reggiano
  • 2 tbsp grated Pecorino Romano
  • ¼ tsp kosher salt
  • ¼ tsp crushed red pepper
  • 4 cloves garlic

Instructions

  1. 1

    In a spacious nonstick frying pan, pour in 1 teaspoon of oil and warm it over medium heat. Sauté the garlic until it turns a lovely golden hue, which should take about 1 minute.

  2. 2

    Incorporate the salt, black pepper, red pepper flakes, and parsley into the pan, stirring to combine. Then, add the tomatoes and chicken broth, and bring the mixture to a rolling boil.

  3. 3

    Lower the heat, introduce the basil, and let it simmer for 5 minutes.

  4. 4

    Carefully crack the eggs into the skillet, ensuring the yolks remain whole. Sprinkle 2 tablespoons of Parmigiano Reggiano and 1 tablespoon of Pecorino Romano on top.

  5. 5

    Cover the pan and let it simmer on medium-low heat for 10 to 15 minutes, or until the egg whites are fully set and no longer translucent.

  6. 6

    To finish, sprinkle the remaining cheese over the top and drizzle with olive oil. Serve with some crusty bread if desired.
